I have a question.

I am creating a VB .NET application that opens Visio to do some stuff there. Visio runs a splash screen on startup and the only way to stop the splash screen from loading is to use code like:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Visio10\Visio.exe" /nologo
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Visio11\Visio.exe" /nologo
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Visio12\Visio.exe" /nologo

for each Visio versions in the command line (but I am not using the command line).

The problem I am having is that I can't run this code from my vb .net application, because my application uses the following code to load Visio:

Dim vsoApplication As Application
vsoApplication = New Visio.Application()
vsoApplication.Visible = False

and I do not know how to call the "/nologo" feature on loading time from my code to skip the Visio splash screen.

Any help is highly appreciated.
